26. What is the polar graph of r= 2cosθ? Circle of radius _____ centered at _____. 2, x axis 1, y axis 4, x axis 2, y axis

27. What does cos(θ) indicate? What does the value “a” represent in the equation r= a cosθ ? Try Again! or Review Material! or Go Home!

28. The answer is A: Cos (θ) indicates the equation lies on the x axis A= length (diameter)= 2

29. What is correct about the number of petals on a rose? n petals if n is even, 2n if n is odd 2n petals if n is even, n if n is odd 2n petals if n is even, 4n if n is odd 4n petals if n is even, n if n is odd

30. A rose has the equation r= acos(nθ). What occurs in the graph when n is even or odd? Try Again! or Review Material! or Go Home!

31. The answer is B: A rose has n petals if n is odd and 2n petals if n is even!

32. What is the polar graph of r= 2-sinθ ?

33. Does the negative sign effect the graph in any way? Where does θ=0? Try Again! or Review Material! or Go Home!

34. The answer is D: Because sinθ has a negative sign, the graph points down. The graph intersects the x axis at 3.

35. Which Greek philosopher developed the table of chord? Archimedes Donatello Hipparchus Socrates

36. Think back to the people discussed in the History section. Hint: He’s not a ninja turtle! Try Again! or Review Material! or Go Home!

37. The answer is C: Hipparchus discovered the table of chord! – Archimedes discovered the spiral – Socrates was a Greek philosopher. – Donatello was an Italian artist and sculptor (also a ninja turtle!)

38. What shape does the graph r= 6-4cosθ make? Lemniscate Limacon with loop Cardioid Limacon with dimple

39. Limacons have the equation r= a-bcosθ. What is the relationship between a and b? Try Again! or Review Material! or Go Home!

40. The answer is D: a>b, in the equation r= a-bcosθ so the limacon has a dimple!

41. What is the graph of r=3sin4θ?

42. In a rose equation r= asin(nθ), what does the value “a” represent? “n”? How does sinθ affect the graph? Try Again! or Review Material! or Go Home!

43. The answer is B: In the rose equation r=asin(nθ), – a=3, the length of the petals – n=4, which is even, so there are 2n or 8 petals total Sinθ gives symmetry to the y-axis

44. What does the equation r 2 = a 2 sin2θ represent? Circle Limacon Rose Lemniscate

45. Which graph has an r 2 value in its general equation? Try Again! or Review Material! or Go Home!

50. In a general spiral equation r=aθ, a spiral is tighter for _______ “a” values and wider for ______ “a” values? larger, smaller even, odd smaller, larger odd, even

51. It is the size of the number “a” that shrinks or widens the spiral. Try Again! or Review Material! or Go Home!

52. The answer is C: Just as you would think, smaller values shrink the graph and larger values widen it!

53. What shape does the graph y=sin(θ)cos(3θ) make? Spider Fish Butterfly Flower *Hint: You may need to use your calculator!
